It’s been a while I was away from the Blog, so here it is what I have today based on few of the email requests; I am trying to familiarize all the developers out there about the Email Notification facility present in FileNet and how do we enable & configure this feature in order to send out an email to the intended users based on the reminders we have set or on initiation of any step that we might have configured.

With the help of Email Notification, the workflow can be set to send email to the intended users. The Notification can be sent on completion of any step, the reminder mails and also for deadlines.

To use this facility, system must have access to SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) server and also Email Notification parameters needs to be configured and enabled. Also we have to create Email Notification template and user preference needs to be set. It consists of 4 steps:

Enabling Email Notification

Configuring Email Notification

Modifying Email Notification template

Setting user Preference

Enabling Email Notification

For Enabling Email notification some event logging option has to be ‘turned on’ on application engine with the help of process configuration console.

1.2) After clicking of properties tab on the event logging action tab turn on the checkbox for Exception and Begin operation categories.

2) Configuring email Notification

2.1) Start the Process Task manager from the process engine in the start menu. On Application engine we have to run routercmd.bat command file that is found in the \Router subfolder where the Application Engine is installed

2.2) Configure email notification with the help of process task manager on the process engine. Select the Process Service option and click on notification tab.

SMTP Host: It specifies the complete host name for an SMTP server on the network running the SMTP service.

SMTP Port: The port on which SMTP service is running.

Character Set: The Character used in encoding the email message.

Email Logon ID: The name used for the account you want the Process Engine to use to log on to the mail server application.

ARBITRARY

In addition to reliability, here are 5 reasons why WordPress is the best platform for any
online business:

1. Free. If you have never heard about open source software, you might be wondering why something as great as WordPress is free. WordPress is free because it has been developed by a worldwide community of developers, who do it as a hobby and because they love the open source spirit. Not only WordPress itself is free but also most of its themes and plugins are free, which means that you can create a really rocking site for free.
2. Easy to use. Ease of use is another reason why WordPress is a great choice for an online platform. This means that someone with little experience will be able to deal with WordPress with no or just a little help from the pros.
3. Secure. As far as online business is concerned, security is of the greatest importance. If your platform is insecure, this is a threat to everything you do and you just can’t afford to go for an insecure platform. Fortunately, in regards to security, WordPress tops the list. It is true that there is no unhackable software and nobody can guarantee you that even with the most stringent security measures your WordPress site will never be hacked but it does make a difference whether you install a security fortress or an easy target for a beginner hacker.
4. Highly customizable. You will certainly want your online platform to have a unique look. With WordPress this is easy to achieve. There are thousands of themes you can choose from and thousands of plugins to add in order to get exactly the functionality you need. If you are a web designer and/or web developer, you can also use existing themes and plugins and modify them exactly to your liking. Not many other CMS offer such customization freedom!
5. Great community. Last, but not least, another reason why WordPress is such a great online platform is its community. The forums at WordPress.org and the other WordPress-related sites contain tons of threads about everything WordPress-related. Additionally, almost always when you are stuck with a problem and ask for help, knowledgeable and skillful WordPress gurus rush to your help. The WordPress community is simply great and you should experience it yourself.

WordPress is a top CMS. It is easy to start using, yet it is powerful and you can build your site exactly the way you dreamed it. If you have never tried WordPress, get it today and try it out. Just don’t forget to browse through wordpress hosting guides to see which WordPress hosts that are worth dealing with and which aren’t. WordPress is reliable and secure but a poor web host is more than it can stand, so don’t take any chances.
